And speaking of better refrigerator cooling.
I have a four door Norcold 1200 refer in a 2005 Fleetwood Excursion 39S. It generally works OK, but could work better especially when we have to park with the refer in the sun. Need to keep that ice...

You probably do not need more than one fan on the back of the refrigerator.
Do you know that on electric, the heat output is only about 300 watts, or 900 Btu's? While on gas, the input is 2,200 Btu's and 80% of that stays in the boiler to separate the water/ammonia mixture. So about 1,800 Btu's for heating the boiler.
About twice as much heat from running it on gas.
So are you getting poor performance on gas or electric? I always run mine on gas when it is over 85F outside.
As for the 'push or pull' situation. If you are pushing in air, it can go anywhere. It could in theory push the flue gas past the refrigerator into the inside of the kitchen. With a 'pull' situation, it will pull air out of the refrigerator behind area, and pull all the air into the rooftop vent. It might also be pulling air from inside to the outside, but likely not to much.
Good luck,
Fred.
